About the Item

Italian Carved and Lacquered Picture Frame Emilia Romagna, Italy, circa 1700 An elegantly carved and lacquered Italian frame, likely originating from Modena around the year 1700. The frame is decorated with a central floral motif at the top and foliate ornamentation along the perimeter, demonstrating the refined craftsmanship typical of early 18th-century Modenese woodwork. The dark brown lacquer finish was applied to emulate the appearance of exotic mahogany, a luxurious material popular in Italian decorative arts of the period. The high quality of carving and proportion suggests that this frame was intended to surround a portrait, emphasizing both prestige and visual elegance. Origin: Modena, Emilia Romagna, Italy Date: Circa 1700 Materials: Carved wood with dark brown lacquer Decoration: Floral and foliate motifs Notes: Frames of this quality were typically commissioned for prominent private portraits or religious paintings, reflecting both regional decorative trends and the influence of exotic materials in Italian interiors of the early 18th century.
